摘要：We investigated the feasibility and potentiality of presymptomatic detection of tobacco disease using hyperspectral imaging, combined with the variable selection method and machine-learning classifiers. Images from healthy and TMV-infected leaves with 2, 4, and 6 days post infection were acquired by a pushbroom hyperspectral reflectance imaging system covering the spectral range of 380-1023 nm. Successive projections algorithm was evaluated for effective wavelengths (EWs) selection. Four texture features, including contrast, correlation, entropy, and homogeneity were extracted according to grey-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM). Additionally, different machine-learning algorithms were developed and compared to detect and classify disease stages with EWs, texture features and data fusion respectively. The performance of chemometric models with data fusion manifested better results with classification accuracies of calibration and prediction all above 80% than those only using EWs or texture features; the accuracies were up to 95% employing back propagation neural network (BPNN), extreme learning machine (ELM), and least squares support vector machine (LS-SVM) models. Hence, hyperspectral imaging has the potential as a fast and non-invasive method to identify infected leaves in a short period of time (i.e. 48 h) in comparison to the reference images (5 days for visible symptoms of infection, 11 days for typical symptoms).
